NSA collecting phone records of millions of Americans daily

[naturegirl]

Wait if Bush was a *rick for doing it, what does that make Obama?? Come one, if you're going to call out one, you have to include "the other" one that's doing the "same thing".

Obama and company could have stopped it ya know, then you MIGHT have a legitimate argument. But he's loving it, all of it!! Oh the power to do as I please with everyone else's money. I get to save mine!!

Phone records and phone conversations are two different things. Phones records are not private information.

I am far from a statist, dude....just trying to inject some FACTS into the conversation here. I don't like Obama and Company any more than you. The collection of phone data has been happening since at 2006...or before.

will they be monitoring all calls going out of the white house?

No. Just as they use puppet email accounts to hide their written communications, they likely have throw-away, prepaid cell phones to hide their conversations.

My response to this: Duh.

Did none of you notice the Patriot Act? The Department of Homeland Security? What, did you think they were simply in charge of making up that handy color coded-threat dealie?

If it saves lives, I've got no problem with it. I've got nothing to hide.

I don't have anything to hide either. But I dont want the government listening to my phone calls either. Especially when the government consists of people who I routinely speak out against.

The point everyone seems to be missing, and this was also true when it was happening under Bush, is that they aren't listening to anyone's calls. They actually need a court order to do that. What they are doing is looking for certain things that might trigger suspicion of illegal activity.

I didn't have a problem with this when Bush's people were doing it and I don't have a problem with it now. Actually, I'm pretty sure it's the same people. People who work for the NSA don't care so much about politics as they do their jobs.

For the first time in my life, I am kinda proud of my country, and at the same time, terrified to use a public restroom. {remember that 1986 song? I always feel like, somebodys watching me?}

This right here proves that we're a police state like China in many ways.
